The True Tzaddik is a Guarantor to Hashem for the World and the Souls of Israel

Holy words from the 27th of Cheshvan, 5766, which strengthen the need to draw close to the True Tzaddik with whom Hashem consulted during the creation of the world, and who is also the one who guarantees to bring the entire world to teshuvah (repentance).

"When Hashem wanted to create the world, He consulted with the souls of the tzaddikim, and created the world, as it is written, 'They were the creators with the King in His work.' For Hashem asked the tzaddikim whether to create the world or not to create the world."

"And why did He consult with the tzaddikim? Because the angels said that it was not worthwhile to create man. The angels said (Gemara Sanhedrin) that it was not worthwhile to create man, for in the end, man would sin and commit all kinds of transgressions, and who knows if he would ever do teshuvah (repentance) at all. It is written (Gemara Sanhedrin) that Hashem began to burn all the angels; He burned one group, He burned a second group, until He reached the third group, which said, 'Do whatever You want, whatever You understand.'"

"After that, He asked the angels of truth, and they said, 'It is all lies.' He asked the angels of peace, and they said, 'It is all strife.' So Hashem asked the tzaddikim, He consulted with the tzaddikim, and the tzaddikim said to create the world—the tzaddikim are responsible for ensuring that the whole world will do teshuvah (repentance). They are responsible that wherever a person falls, whatever happens to him, everyone will do teshuvah (repentance)."

"This is what the tzaddikim promised Hashem: that whoever comes to them, whoever just believes in them, they will bring him back in complete teshuvah (repentance)."

"Rabbi Yehuda said in the name of Rav: At the time when Hashem wanted to create man, one group of ministering angels came. He said to them, 'Do you wish that We make man in Our image, according to Our likeness?' He will be like Hashem literally; man is like Hashem, he has such powers, he encompasses the entire world. They said, 'Heaven forbid! What is man that You should remember him? This man is destined to anger You. He will sin, he will commit transgressions, he will desecrate the Shabbat; why on earth would You create him?' So He placed His finger among them—the same finger with which Hashem gave the Torah, 'by the finger of G-d,' it is written 'by the finger of G-d'—and with that same finger, Hashem burned the angels."

"Hashem said, 'With this finger, I am destined to give the Tablets, and with these Tablets, everyone will do teshuvah (repentance), for when there is Torah in Israel, man does teshuvah (repentance).' Hashem gave the Torah, for if He had only brought us to Mount Sinai and not given us the Torah, it would have been enough for us. The Kedushat Levi says that the generation on the 1st of Nissan already knew the entire Torah; as soon as they reached Mount Sinai, they all reached the level of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and their filth ceased. And just as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob knew the entire Torah."

"Because they were teaching them Torah. A person opens his eye; the eye cries out, 'Why did you open me? Why did you burn me? You burned the soul!' A person opened his eye and burned the soul! When Mashiach ben David comes, it will also be forbidden to open the eyes; only after the resurrection of the dead will it be permitted to open the eyes. Until then, the man is clothed within the S.M. (Samael), the woman is clothed within Lilith, and the bodies are not the bodies with which Hashem created the world. Only after the creation, after the resurrection of the dead, will the bodies be replaced; we will receive bodies of the resurrection of the dead whose filth has ceased, bodies that existed before the sin of the Golden Calf."

"Everything that a person goes through is so that he will have a body like before the sin of the Golden Calf, like Yishai, who died without sin, and Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi, who merited to enter Gan Eden with his body. Regarding Yehoshua ben Levi, it is written that he would teach Torah to people whom no one else wanted to teach Torah, and in the merit of this, he merited to enter Gan Eden with his body. For the moment a person teaches Torah to anyone, he himself will merit to enter Gan Eden with his body."
